Rush

Rush is illustrious for his swagger and Texas-size ego, and there is merit in the criticisms of his flaws.

I believe that he is misunderstood. Deep down he is a solid conservative, and  believes what he says. He is an expert at speaking Obamaese and Progressive-talk. Of great value are his translations of their propaganda meant to manipulate and dupe the masses, largely with success too.

Today he made the comment that current Leftists  are quite different from 20 years ago. They have forsaken any token pretense of listening to the opposition. They are fascist now: there will be no bipartisanship or reaching across the aisle. The enemies of Progressivism are to shut up, obey, go along or be destroyed.

This is nicely illustrated in the slavish, unquestioning support that the press and Congress still give to Obama and Holder after 6 years of smashing the Constitution, and breaking the law like dictators do.

His followers are happy with what he has done. They are fanatics and totalitarian thugs, out to wipe out their opponents, and install a permanent one-party "democracy" here sustained for decades with amnesty-offered illegal immigrants, loyal followers of the progressive cause.
